    forgotten my iphone password....how do i reset it?

    Connect in recovery mode and restore, you'll get the option to reset the passcode during this process:
    iOS: Unable to update or restore and iPhone and iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
    If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.

    I have forgotten my iPhone password… what do I do?

    Either force the phone into recovery mode, as described here, & restore it:

    Or, login to iCloud.com, locate the phone, then erase it.
    Either method will remove the passcode.

    You will need to restore your device as New to remove a Restrictions passcode. Go through the normal process to restore your device, but when you see the options to restore as New or from a backup, be sure to choose New.

  • HT1212 Forgotten iPhone password

    I have forgotten my iPhone password. When I try to restore from either iTunes backup or iCloud backup, I get a messag that says I need to turn off "Find My iPhone" on my phone and it will not let me restore it. Obviously, I cannot access my phone. Does anyone know a way around this?

    Remove the device from iCloud. See this support document. http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2702
    You will then be able to restore the device.

    You cannot merge Apple ID accounts, that has never been supported.

  • HT1766 I have forgotten my iPhone backup password. Is there a way of getting it as I am trying to load my old data from iPhone 4 to an iPhone 5?

    I have forgotten my iPhone backup password. Is there a way of getting it as I am trying to load my old data from iPhone 4 to an iPhone 5?

    If on a Mac, and you elected to save such to your Keychain, you can recover it from your Keychain. Otherwise, you can't.
    While you can continue to sync/backup, if you can't remember it & want to remove it, you'll have to delete your existing backups & restore the phone as a new device. Your data will be unrecoverable.

  • I've forgotten my restrictions password. I have "find my iPhone" in restrictions though.

    I have "Find my iPhone". I have it turned on in restrictions. I have forgotten the password to my restrictions. I have also downloaded the new iOS 7 as well. I have backed up my phone and tried going through iTunes to go to factory reset but it won't let me because of "Find my iphone".  Is there anything else I can try?

  • How do I stop encrypting my iPhone backups if I've forgotten my backup password?

    How do I stop encrypting my iPhone backups if I've forgotten my backup password?
    I've just been bitten by my backup being TOTALLY USELESS because I've forgotten my password, so ALL FUTURE backups are USELESS because I don't know the password and I can't STOP encrypting because I don't know my password.
    HOPELESSLY POORLY THOUGHT OUT SYSTEM.

    Not happy

    Hello Robot-the-Cat,
    I can understand that frustration of not being able to access your back up because of a forgotten password. Take a look at the article below for some suggestions to try to get the password unlocked. It will give some suggestions of past password ideas as well as if you are using a Mac, you can recover the password using Keychain Access.
